diagnose sys ha session-sync-dev output unexpected

[boneyard]

In a FGCP cluster trying to get session sync traffic over the dedicated interface with the set session-sync-dev command. But the corresponding diagnose output seems to indicate it doesn't work.

fgt1 (root) # diagnose sys ha session-sync-dev
HA sessync ports: 1
dmz probe: HA probe, Standalone connected, peer_mac = 00:00:00:00:00:00
HB pkts: rx=0, tx=508298
SES pkts: rx=0, tx=0

Seems to indicate HB packets are send, but none received. Also the status remains probe for HA.

The cluster is connect with a direct cable, no switch in between or such.Tried with other interfaces also, wan1, internal4, ...

Anyone has this working and different command (diagnose sys ha session-sync-dev) output? What are your counters and status?

Hi,

You are saying the hatalk is not working, hatalk is the one responsible for the heartbeat. Please check the crashlog "di de crashlog read" to see if the demon is failing. You can restart the process by using the command "fnsysctl killall hatalk". Run the following debug on both the Firewall to see the process

diag debug hatalk -1

diag debug console timestamp en

diag debug enable

To stop the debug use the command given below;

diag debug disable

diag debug reset
